“I went to this store early yesterday morning, but I didn’t meet the Taiwanese owner. I was a little disappointed Today I ordered morning glory and Mocha. Mocha is very special. It has a spicy taste. However, the clerk did not tell me that I need to stir it to drink it . Halfway through the drink, I heard the clerk telling another group of customers to stir it, and I suddenly realized it You can smell the different coffee beans and choose the one you like. The clerk did not introduce coffee knowledge as mentioned on the Internet. However, he told you that there are donuts nearby and you can buy them and eat them. So, we I went to buy donuts, but I didn’t see the pour coffee performance, which was a pity The store decoration is very warm.”
“Da Beans Green Cafe was the best place that my wife and I had breakfast on the big island. We stayed in Mountain View and had our eyes set on this place from the beginning of our trip. Phoenix was amazing from the time we walked in the door. We felt right at home and chit chatted with Phoenix, he told us all about how the coffee was made as well as how his wife and him discovered the green coffee. I had the salmon lox bagel and it was THE BEST salmon lox bagel I have ever had. My wife could hardly wait to dig into the luxurious French toast, it was amazing as well! Don’t miss out on this wonderful breakfast and experience while on the big island!!!”
“We had the musubi, turnover and 4 flavors of the mochi donuts, SO SO GOOD! If you are a fan of baked goods (or donuts) this is a must-stop. We grabbed coffee next door too!”
“This is a must stop for coffee lovers. I'm a big coffee connoisseur, always seeking out the best coffee, having different coffee shipped to me from around the world. But the coffee I got here, from Ka au was one of the best coffees I've ever had! Mary who runs place is awesome and knows her stuff.”
“Best pizza we've come across, it's build your own style or a few specials. Wings and fries are good, too. Even a busy weekend was less than 30 mins until ready.”
“Awesome Island Raised Grass Fed Beef Burgers made to order.. one of the last places you can request Medium Rare and you’ll get exactly that. Prepared just right, juicy and hot! The garlic fries are my personal suggestion for a burger companion. These burgers are 4 steps above basic. Don’t pay DOUBLE for a burger at Burger Joint, when you can get a much better burger made with Aloha at David’s Ma’ona Lunch Counter (or Truck)!Parking: Whether it’s at the Lunch Counter in Shipman, or on-site at the Food Wagon, there’s always plenty parking.Kid-friendliness: The kids love these meals!”
“Best tacos we've had in 10 months and you might make new friends when you pull up. Flavor and portions were great. We have been traveling from the East coast to the west Coast and were so pleased with our beef/barria tacos and carne asada burritos. the rice and beans were delicious too. We were able to make one more trip to Rico's before we left, check their hours but sun Mon 230-5 worked for us. Food can get very expensive, but we felt their prices were fair and fulfilling.”
“Had a lovely take out meal from the Tuk Tuk Thai food truck. Super nice people and fresh food. If you get the fresh spring rolls, add the avocado, almost a meal in itself! Pad Thai and basil stir fry were both tasty and large portions. They were careful to ask about vegetarian needs which is a nice touch. Quick and easy and tasty!”
“Beautiful little gem of a cafe with delicious food. The garden salad and soups were especially delicious with amazing vegetables fresh from the garden. The seating is cute inside and there are beautiful little garden seating areas outside. Service was very nice, and lots of nice art to look at - humble and very understated ”
“The ladies are SO friendly and the food is so fresh!! I thought the pad Thai was amazing and then I tried the pumpkin curry!!! By far the best Thai food I've ever had and that goes for everything I ordered. Both dishes I can eat as two meals and the avocado rolls are the perfect appetizer. Could not recommend more and wish I could eat this for every meal!!”
“Had the red curry with tofu and it was just amazing! It was raining and they even brought the food to the car. Couple of picnic benches to eat outside of you prefer that. Very friendly people making and serving. The food was freshly made and the serving size was quite large. Definitely recommend.”
“Unfortunately I was so excited to eat my first gyro in 5 years and I forgot to take a photo!! It did not disappoint! Was soooo yummy!! Looking forward to ordering this lamb beef gyro again with double tzaziki!!”
“Frank foods is dedicated to providing top quality meats and customer service. Customize your list or they offer meat packages (feed one or an entire ohana).Delivery is also available.”
“The food was great. The music was a bit loud for my taste and a hindrance when trying to talk across the table. Also, we tried to sit outside away from the music and were told we must be a party of 4 or more, which we weren't.Parking: Restaurant located in a shopping center so there was plenty of free parking.”
“This is my favorite restaurant in Hilo! Family owned business, and the owner is also the chef. They offer homestyle cooking with locally sourced ingredients. They make an amazing salad with local greens! The White Guava Café has many local favorites, and something for everyone. They offer different sizes of servings so you can order just the right amount. My favorite is their fried tofu!Vegetarian options: Fried tofu, as I said, in my review. I also love their coconut, vegan curry”
“Amazing local food! If you’re looking to get a real taste of the Big Island this is the place to go. They have many options. I tried the Hawaiian plate which included pork, loa loa, and salmon. It was great and more than enough to fill you up. My fiancé had the BBQ plate and it was so flavorful and tender it came with chicken, beef, and a short rib plus sides. Coming from a long time Texas resident it exceeded my high standards with flying colors!!!”
“Everything we ordered was yummy but this Lilikoi Cheesecake was out of this world! Lovely service, live music and the friendliest local vibe too...from J&J at ”
“Really great tasty takeaway food. Poke is super fresh and all three varieties really good! Ahi plate outstanding Service is Hawaii good. Be aware they have many phone orders so you might wait a little No ambiance because food truck nowhere to sit”
“If you are on your way to Volcano National Park and want a bite to eat before heading in or something to take with you while there then you'll definitely want to stop here. We got the tuna and turkey sandwiches. Not only did they taste good but they were stuffed to the brim! My husband and I shared one & the kids shared the other. That was plenty, plus some chips, for all of us. We wished we were closer to be able to come back and try more.”
“Best taco outside of Boyle Heights in east LA! Autentico! They put their heart into their cooking and it shines through. Have eaten here many times and have sampled the entire menu. Where do I begin? Tuesday's birria offering is truly one of the best things I've ever eaten. Crunchy, cheesy, meaty and loaded with flavor. This is birria like your abuela used to make. Friday things get interesting. Offerings range from fried battered fish and shrimp, to carnitas (for $3!), tender and flavorful carne asada, exotics like chicken mole, lingua, barbacoa, chicken or ricotta taquitos. There are others but these stand out. My personal favorite is the shrimp, generous portion where there is a big piece of shrimp in every bite. I say that you can go to Taco Aina and get one taco and be full, but you'll buy a second (third or fouth) because they are so delicious. Cute set up off the highway, gives you the feel of Mexico with its bright colors and interesting knick knacks. Order taking staff is friendly and helpful, cook is busy! This is not fast food, it is good flavorful food prepared as fast as possible. If it's busy be prepared to wait - it will be worth it!”
“Love this place! Every time we go it's really fun. The bartender Cheryl is a hoot, and everyone we've met there is great. Truly one of the best local hole in the wall bars I've ever been to.”
“Some of the best Thai food outside of Thailand. Amazing papaya salad! Food was delicious, server very attentive and lovely homey vibe inside the restaurant. Will definitely make this place a “must stop” on future trips to the Big Island!”
“Awesome drive in walk up window service style food. The best French fries around and tasty burgers. They have local favorites as well including breakfast. Outside dining only or food to go. Popular with the early morning blue collar workers and always seems busy for breakfast and lunch. We went before the lunch crowd showed up so service was pretty quick. It was a little more expensive than I would have expected. Two burgers, 2 fries, and 2 sodas was around $35. However, I will definitely be back and look forward to trying their Loco moco next time.”
“I am a new resident to Hawaii and have enjoyed dining at Ning’s since my arrival. Having traveled to Thailand ?? on a few occasions, I know the authentic taste of Thai food - sour, salty, sweet and spicy. Ning’s captures these qualities and more with their Bohemian flair, blending in perfectly on the main strip in old town Pahoa. Try their amazing generous proportion of “som tum” / spicy green papaya salad. Follow it up with the spicy Thai sweet basil seafood stir fry… you will then have experienced a perfect duo that can best be experienced on the streets of Bangkok. The restaurant hours are 11am to 9pm MON thru SAT. Please note, SUN hours are 5pm to 9pm. ENJOY!”
“Didn’t have much expectations coming here, but workers were friendly enough, food was hot, reasonably priced, cooked properly, and no complaints! Glad they take card and not cash only”
“The food and service are amazing. Highly recommended!!Vegetarian options: Side salad and desserts.Dietary restrictions: They give me less rice to watch my carbohydratesParking: Always parkingKid-friendliness: Multiple food options for kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap ♿️ stalls close by and easily accessible.”
“Just bought a Oreo chilatta and it was the best. The workers were friendly and very helpful..They are so sweet..I'm definitely going back to get me more of their Oreo chilatta”
“Their fresh produce were reasonably priced. That's all I bought from here. Their head cabbage were some of the the tiniest I have ever seen before but were cheap.”
“I’ve been on the Big Island for a week and a half, trying to find great food and this place has that and more!! Highly recommended, I had the Crispy Beef Tacos and thought they were amazing! Not to mention the best service and friendly people. It is a MUST try spot! I can’t wait to be back on island and return.”
